Bug#1033296: RFP: yabsm -- a btrfs snapshot manager and backup system

2023-03-21 Thread Nicholas Hubbard
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name: yabsm
  Version : 3.15.0
  Upstream Author : Nicholas Hubbard (me)
* URL : https://metacpan.org/dist/App-Yabsm
* License : GPL3
  Programming Lang: Perl
  Description : a btrfs snapshot manager and backup system

yabsm is a btrfs snapshot manager and backup system.

yabsm is written in Perl and is available on CPAN as App::Yabsm.

It runs as a daemon that is meant to be started at boot time. An example
systemd service is located in its /examples/yabsmd.service file.

yabsm uses the common ExtUtils::Makemaker, so can be built, tested, installed,
etc, with the usual "perl Makefile.PL; make; make install DESTDIR=/foo"
commands.

Due to the nature of its configuration, it would be useful to users to
install the example configuration file /examples/yabsm.conf.example to
/etc/yabsm.conf.example.

yabsm depends on btrfs-progs, sudo, OpenSSH, and Perl >= 5.34.0.

yabsm packs itself, along with its Perl dependencies, into a single
script. This means that for all packaging intents and purposes yabsm
has zero Perl dependencies. However, the test-suite depends on
Test::Exception, so this module needs to be installed in order to run
its tests.
